New constraint qualifications for optimization problems in Banach spaces based on asymptotic KKT conditions

E Börgens, C Kanzow, P Mehlitz… - SIAM Journal on …, 2020 - SIAM
Optimization theory in Banach spaces suffers from a lack of available constraint
qualifications. There exist very few constraint qualifications, and these are often violated …

Towards M-stationarity for optimal control of the obstacle problem with control constraints

G Wachsmuth - SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2016 - SIAM
We consider an optimal control problem, whose state is given as the solution of the obstacle
problem. The controls are not assumed to be dense in H^-1(Ω). Hence, local minimizers may …

Lagrange multiplier methods for constrained optimization and variational problems in Banach spaces

D Steck - 2018 - opus.bibliothek.uni-wuerzburg.de
This thesis is concerned with a class of general-purpose algorithms for constrained
minimization problems, variational inequalities, and quasi-variational inequalities in Banach …

The limiting normal cone to pointwise defined sets in Lebesgue spaces

P Mehlitz, G Wachsmuth - Set-Valued and Variational Analysis, 2018 - Springer
We consider subsets of Lebesgue spaces which are defined by pointwise constraints. We
provide formulas for corresponding variational objects (tangent and normal cones). Our …

Weak and strong stationarity in generalized bilevel programming and bilevel optimal control

P Mehlitz, G Wachsmuth - Optimization, 2016 - Taylor & Francis
In this article, we consider a general bilevel programming problem in reflexive Banach
spaces with a convex lower level problem. In order to derive necessary optimality conditions …

Local and global analysis of multiplier methods for constrained optimization in Banach spaces

E Börgens, C Kanzow, D Steck - SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2019 - SIAM
We propose an augmented Lagrangian method for the solution of constrained optimization
problems in Banach spaces. The framework we consider is very general and encompasses …

Bilevel optimal control: theory, algorithms, and applications

S Dempe, M Friedemann, F Harder, P Mehlitz… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
In this chapter, we are concerned with inverse optimal control problems, ie, optimization
models which are used to identify parameters in optimal control problems from given …

Optimality conditions for a class of inverse optimal control problems with partial differential equations

F Harder, G Wachsmuth - Optimization, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
We consider bilevel optimization problems which can be interpreted as inverse optimal
control problems. The lower-level problem is an optimal control problem with a parametrized …

Optimality conditions for the simple convex bilevel programming problem in Banach spaces

S Franke, P Mehlitz, M Pilecka - Optimization, 2018 - Taylor & Francis
The simple convex bilevel programming problem is a convex minimization problem whose
feasible set is the solution set of another convex optimization problem. Such problems …
